These ‘Kids These Days’ Kids

With a unique, jazzy, hip-hop meets the blues meets soul meets something brand new sounds, Kids These Days (KTD for short), is a Chicago-based group of teenage musicians, making music with the potential to appeal to most everyone’s ears. Easy rapping is laid on top of swaggering horns and sometimes mingles with a strong female voice. Singing about, being young and being in love and being confused, KTD can really get in your head. Not just because I put their songs on repeat, but the easygoing nature of their sound lets you develop a relationship. Listening to KTD is vibing and hanging out as these teens pour their hearts and lungs out into our ears and all over Chicago as they play tons of local shows.

Keep up on Kid These Days! They’ve really got something that no one else out there has got.

Why take the pledge?

Far too many Black youth continue to be demonized, criminalized and murdered.

Enough is enough!

In response to this intensifying crisis, the Black Youth Project (BYP) has launched “The Pledge.”

With “The Pledge,” we are asking individuals and organizations to close ranks around black youth and make a commitment to take action and fight with black youth as they confront a relentless crisis. We at the BYP believe that each person can make a difference by doing something!

By taking The Pledge we not only articulate our concern about black youth, but symbolically unite our voices with others who will work to confront this crisis.

If we each take action, whether it is starting a group, signing a petition, or mentoring a young person in your neighborhood, then we all become a part of the solution.
